2023年新航道托福写作新题型范文集：Your professor is discussing animal tests. Write a post responding to the professor’s question.

4月11日，ETS在北京召开了全球发布会，宣布了托福考试全新升级的消息，托福考试迎来全面改革!

自2023年7月26日起， 托福iBT考试的时长将由3小时缩短至2小时以内，取消考试中的10分钟休息时间。其中改革比较多就是托福写作，可以用2个关键字抓住改革的精髓：“短”和“学术”。

►关键字1：“短”：

改革之前要求在30分钟内完成至少300字的独立写作，而现在只要求100字，当然时间也缩短到10分钟。

表面上看，输出速度没有变化，都是10字/分钟。但是，构思慢的学生要小心了。之前完全可以用10分钟构思，再用20分钟写作。现在必须“短平快”：2分钟内读完教授的邮件和学生留言，然后形成自己的思路，马上动笔，绝 对不能拖泥带水。

►关键字2：“学术”：

旧版托福写作有一些接地气的题目，比如《你愿意在家吃饭，还是去饭店?》。问的是个人偏好(Personal Preference)。考生不需要有什么知识储备，只要有生活常识和基本英文能力就能交出一份答案。即便是低龄考生和脱离学校很久的社会人士也可以得到不错的分数。

改革后的题目会“高冷”很多。比如一道样题问你：在过去的两个世纪，推动人类社会进步的最重要的发明是什么?题目还规定你不许讲电脑和手机。ETS示范的满分答卷讨论了“疫苗和抗生素”。但是仔细想想，这要求考生(1)了解科技进步史;(2)有话题词汇储备，比如vaccine, antibiotic, lifespan, pathogen。显然，学术讨论不是仅靠常识就能hold住的。

为了更好的帮助大家考好理想的托福写作分数，今天小编整理了2023年新航道托福写作新题范文集，本篇文章的主题是Your professor is discussing animal tests. Write a post responding to the professor’s question.一起来学习一下吧。

Dr. Gupta

For centuries, animal tests have been used in an effort to understand the world around us better. It is estimated that more than 115 million animals are tested per year for medical cosmetic, toxicological or psychological research. What are the consequences? Should this practice be continued?

Emma

I think animal testing should be continued because it has led to important medical breakthroughs. For example, the discovery of insulin for diabetes was made possible through animal testing. It's also important to note that regulations and ethical guidelines are in place to minimize harm to the animals used in testing.

John

I understand the importance of animal testing in scientific research, but I think there should be more emphasis on alternative methods that do not involve animals. For example, computer simulations and in vitro testing can be used to reduce the number of animals used in research. Additionally, some animals, like chimpanzees, are highly intelligent and have complex emotional lives, and it is unethical to subject them to invasive experiments.

Animal testing has become a complex issue that poses an ethical dilemma. Although I do agree with John’s view that new technologies should be developed to reduce or eliminate the need for animal testing, I believe it is necessary at least now and in the near future since the use of animals is still irreplaceable in some fields of research. For instance, before a vaccine can be tested on humans, it must go through animal tests. This is because animals, such as mice, have immune systems that are similar to humans, and testing on animals can provide valuable information about the safety and efficacy of a vaccine. Unless alternative methods can prove to be at least as effective as animal testing, the latter should not be banned.

AI 打分及评语

Based on the rubric, I would rate the following sample answer with a score of 4 out of 5.

The response provides a clear opinion on the topic and supports it with an explanation that draws from specific examples. The contribution to the discussion is also meaningful, as the writer recognizes the ethical concerns surrounding animal testing but emphasizes its importance in certain areas of research.

There are a few minor grammatical errors and awkward phrasings 1.The first sentence could be more concise and clear. For example, "I believe animal testing is necessary in certain fields of research, despite the ethical concerns it raises."

2.In the sentence "This is because animals, such as mice, have immune systems that are similar to humans," the word "such" should be followed by "as" to make it grammatically correct.

3.The phrase "at least as effective as animal testing" could be rephrased to "as effective as or more effective than animal testing" to improve clarity.

There are some minor punctuation errors, such as missing commas before introductory phrases (e.g., "Before a vaccine can be tested on humans") and missing periods at the end of some sentences.
